From: Julian Wiedmann jwi@linux.ibm.com Date: Thu, 7 Jan 2021 18:24:41 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] s390/qeth: fix locking for discipline setup / removal
Due to insufficient locking, qeth_core_set_online() and qeth_dev_layer2_store() can run in parallel, both attempting to load & setup the discipline (and stepping on each other toes along the way). A similar race can also occur between qeth_core_remove_device() and qeth_dev_layer2_store().
Access to .discipline is meant to be protected by the discipline_mutex, so add/expand the locking in qeth_core_remove_device() and qeth_core_set_online(). Adjust the locking in qeth_l*_remove_device() accordingly, as it's now handled by the callers in a consistent manner.
Based on an initial patch by Ursula Braun.
